Welcome to our microphone collection. Aside from the usual collection of studio mics, such as CADs, Shure sm57s, and sm58s, we have a great collection of mics that we're very proud of. We are always adding and upgrading mics in our collection. Below is our current collection...

Soundelux e47 (Our "Star" vocal mic)
This is the same mic used by Alison Kraus, and several other popular artists. Believe it or not, it is preferred over the Neumann U47(a popular classic vocal tube mic that is no longer manufactured). It is modeled completely spec for spec after the Neumann U47 , right down to each component. It sounds identical to the Neumann U47. It has the same warmth and fullness except it has a more consistent clarity, which is why it's preferred over the old Neumann U47s. It also sounds amazing on acoustic instruments, upright bass and just outside the kick drum.

Neumann KM54
This particular vintage mic is one of Neumann's small "tube" condensers. It's a great sounding mic on acoustic instuments..

Neumann KM84
This mic is the preferred standard for acoustic recordings and is, of course, one of our favorites. It has great clarity and tone.

AEA R84
For that classic large ribbon mic sound. This is a great sounding ribbon microphone. And like all ribbon mics, its very delicate and should only be handled by the engineer.

Audio Technica AT4060
Another great sounding large diaphragm tube microphone. This mic in particular has a new 'old stock' Telefunken tube in it. This is a great sounding vocal microphone. It was our top runner before we bought the Soundelux e47. This mic is used for many of the same types applications as the Soundelux e47. I use it outside the kick drum head on full band sessions when the e47 is being used for fiddle or another utility instrument.

Audio Technica AT4050
Sounding as true and full as any 4050 you've ever heard. A great, versatile large diaphragm microphone. We've recorded some great bluegrass though this mic along with our other mics too of course.

Audio Technica AT3525
These are good sounding mics that allow for upper frequencies without being too bright.

Rode NTK
A very warm and true sounding large diaphragm tube microphone. This mic is extremely true. So if your looking for more color (other than its tube warmth), you might be better off using something like the AT4050. This thing sounds incredible on banjo believe it or not.

Shure SM81s
Industry standard condenser mics for acoustic instruments and overheads. These are great, versatile mics that do their job well.

Shure SM57s
What studio doesn't have Shure sm57s. They're an Industry standard choice for electric guitar amps and snare drums. I stray from using them on occasion if I'm going for something in particular. I like to use large diaphragm mics on amps sometimes as well.

Shure SM58
This mic is also useful in the studio for general, peripheral, or non-critical applications. It's according to what you're looking for sound-wise.

AKG 3000-B
This is a very versatile 1" large diaphragm condenser studio and stage microphone used for both vocal and instrumental applications. It is a good alternative for female vocals.

AKG C1000S
This is a very versatile small diaphragm condenser mic. It's great for horns, woodwinds, acoustics and has clean uncolored sibilants..

EV RE20
Cardioid Broadcast Microphone. The RE20 is pretty killer on floor toms too. We use Audix D2s for the high toms, as shown below.

Audix D-6 Sub-Impulse
(Inside Kick Mic)
This is a kick-butt kick mic. It's all the crack and punch you'll ever need. We also use a large diaphragm tube mic just outside the kick drum as well to add a resonant fatness to the sound. It's according to what other instruments are being miked during the tracking, as to whether I use the Soundelux e47 Tube or the AT4060 Tube mic for the outside kick. Either way our kick sound is pretty amazing with this combo and rivals any other drum recordings I've heard.

Audix D-2 (Drum Toms & Percussion)
The Ideal Mic For That Big Tom Sound!
For bringing out the real, dynamic sound of your drum toms and congas, nothing beats the D-2! The D-2 accurately reproduces the warmth and punch you listen for from percussion, leaving out the muddy, indistinct "boom" that can mar recordings. The D-2's natural warmth also makes it a great mic for saxophones and other woodwinds requiring a true, sensitive, yet big, reproduction.

beyerdynamic))) M201
We use this mic for applications such as snare or Hi-Hat. It is typically used in the same way a sm57 is used, but has it's own unique sound, which sounds as good if not better that an sm57. It's according to what you're going for.

beyerdynamic))) M69TG
These are good mics for general, peripheral applications. They are also useful on brass and woodwind instruments.
